I would just like to know if this games worth buying and how much relativly it would cost (Americans ok but prefer Canadian.) Also how long it would take an average player to beat.
PS. Any info on some of the gameplay would also help. Thanks

It is worth getting. I don't know how much it costs over there, but under $50 US would be about right.
As for 'beating' the game, that depends on how you want to play. If you just want to finish the main story, then about about 100 hours (of course, depending on how you play). However, doing that only means that you are ignoring 90% of the game. There are hundreds of side quests and places to explore. This, coupled with the fact that you can still play after finishing the main story, means there are hundreds more hours of gameplay out there for you.
As for tips: Play the game however you want to. You aren't forced to do anything (even the main quest), which means you can roleplay a character, power game, etc etc etc.
Hope that helps!

I've been playing EVERY day since it came out on PC. I've not ignored the main story, but I did leave it for awhile. I'd say I've played atleast 2 hours (more really) everyday since it was released.
Lets say roughly 50 days ago. That is ATLEAST 100 hours of gameplay. some days I played most of the day away. It counted as 2 hours. I don't think I ever played less than 2 hours.
I HAVE NOT beat the game with more than 100 hours into it.
You could win easy if you cheated. You can cheat easy with the construction set. Hell, even I cheated a bit in all honestly. But I made sure it didn't really count as cheating...
Atleast in my head.
BUY the game now! I can not believe that Bethesda released such an awsome game. I cheer them. (yes, I know there are AI things that could be better, but all in all)
I only hope that they now add to the current game asap. I guess if you fallow the story, the game will end (I've not beaten the game tho, could be wrong) but I hope they add way more content. With the plugs I've seen, they could easily make this the biggest rpg,mod community ever.

Me, I explore everywhere I can go and do every quest offered to me... I've been playing for about 4 weeks, racking up a minimum of 24 hrs each weekend and 5-7 hrs each weeknight... seeing as I just beat it last night, that's over 200 hrs playtime. :wot:
jackfrostjr: It doesn't end, you just complete the main quest and continue on however you please ;)
